SOCIETY MRS. THEO. B. DAVIS, Editor < Please send local or personal items to the RECORD shop by Tuesday night, if possible. ] LEISURE What is this life if full of care, We have no time to stand and stare ? No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows ? No time to see when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass ? No time to see in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night? No time to turn at Beauty’s glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance ? No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich the smile her lips began? A poor life this, if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. WILLIAM H. DAVIES.

FLOWER GARDENS ADD TO BEAUTY OF HO/WE The appearance of bright naw seed catalogues has set the home gardener dreaming of summer flower gardens, masses of color and fragrance. Before making selections, there are several points the flower lover should keep in mind, declares J. G. Weaver, floriculturist at State College. Too many of the new novelties or so-called “AH-American” se lections should be avoided until they have been tested locally. The gardener who likes to experment should buy only a small package of these seed. However, a few that can be rec ommended are cosmos “Sensation Pinkie”, chrysanthemum-flowered marigold, and petunia “Salmon Supreme.” If these varieties are successful they can be recommend ed to neighbors. One of the most important things to avoid is that of buying mixtures of seed. If the gardener wants pink zinnias, the variety known as Exquisite should be pur chased. The person who buys mixed seed may get many of the off-colors and poor type flowers. For cut flowers, Weaver recom mends zinnias, marigolds, asters, cosmos, snapdragons, scabiosas, gaillardias, and tithonias. Wilt re sistant asters and rust resistant snapdragons can be purchased. If fragrance or* odor in the gar den is desired, the floriculturist suggests ageratum, marigold, he liotrope, mignonette, nasturtium, stocks, sweet peas, and double pe tunias. Among the best border or edg ing plants are dwarf petunias, Tom Thumb snapdragons, nastur tiums, phlox drummondi, verbenas, or dwarf marigolds. —. 1 THEN AND NOW IN U. S. A.
